Re: Does side support of balls during fermentation impact rise in the oven?

Im still confused. What do you guys recommend, a narrow or wide container for a puffier crust?

I have seen no evidence that container width plays a role in puffiness. I have seen claims from experienced ppl that it does, and also that it does not. This, combined with my own experience, tells me it’s très moot. File under moot points such as autolyse, yeast type, delayed salt, etc.
